Man after reading that cracked dot com article you linked...I am not all that surprised. But I had to really laugh at the Metallica part, you know the one that mentions that Napster Fiasco, yeah, well they used to be one of my favorite bands of all time, and on principle I dropped them like a Hot Potato after the Napster incident, and now... I am so glad I stuck to my guns, those hypocrites! I also could swear that that song "Crazy B****" sounded like a song that was done by my spouse's band years ago with different lyrics of course, I used to think I was just paranoid or maybe crazy, but I now want to listen to their old recordings and that song to see if maybe I can figure out which song it was, hmmmm maybe My spouse and his mates have some grounds for a lawsuit!!!

Go for it. If Metalica can sue everyone else then why can't you sue them? After all, there ARE only 8 notes to be had.
